Obesity is an important nutritional disorder worldwide. Its association with environmental pollution may trigger an increase in oxidative stress and inflammatory parameters. Coal is a resource used throughout the world as ...

In the present study, an object oriented approach and modeling framework is proposed for the construction of synthetic, computational models of social systems. The conventional approach to model and study social systems ...

An operational matrix method based on generalized Bernoulli polynomials of level m is introduced and analyzed in order to obtain numerical solutions of initial value problems. The most innovative component of our method ...

An operator T acting on a Banach space X satisfies the property (UWπ) if σa(T)\σSF-+ (T) = π (T), where σa(T) is the approximate point spectrum of T, σSF-+ (T) is the upper semi-Weyl spectrum of T andπ (T) the set of all ...

“Cleaner Production“(CP) is about less and more efficient energy and materials use and the substitution of more harmful products (for the environment and health) by less dangerous ones. CP was the reply of the industry to ...

For over 20 years, researchers have agreed that when pentacesium trihydrogen tetrasulfate hydrate (Cs5H3(SO4)4·xH2O) is heated through 141 °C, the observed conductivity increase corresponds to a physical transformation: a ...

The recently described intermolecular O2 transfer between the side-on Ni-O2 complex [(12-TMC)Ni-O2]+ and the manganese complex [(14-TMC)Mn]2+, where 12-TMC and 14-TMC are 12- and 14-membered macrocyclic ligands, ...

There are different tools to estimate the end to end available bandwidth (AB). These tools use techniques which send pairs of packets to the network and observe changes in dispersion or propagation delays to infer the value ...

Biocatalysis reproduce nature’s synthetic strategies in order to synthesize different organic
compounds. Natural metabolic pathways usually involve complex networks to support cellular
growth and survival. In this regard, ...

The enzymatic synthesis of nucleotides offers several advantages over traditional multistep chemical methods, such as stereoselectivity, regioselectivity, enantioselectivity, simple downstream processing, and the use of ...

Social intelligence is an emerging property of a system composed of agents that consists of the ability of this system to conceive, design, implement and execute strategies to solve problems and thus achieve a collective ...

We report structural and optical properties of thin films grown by the sol–gel method and spin-coating technique. We synthesized thin films of Tiox-Zn-V with varying concentrations of vanadium and titanium. The resulting ...
